Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 376: Xiao Shizi

Chapter 376: Xiao Shizi (1)
Mu Yutang's eyes were fixed: "You mean, the emperor doesn't want to kill Chen Xianhe? Why? Murdering a minister in the court is a crime of beheading."

"More than ten years ago, when the emperor was still the prince, Chen Xianhe was one of his most powerful generals. When he ascended the throne, Chen Xianhe made some contributions. The emperor is a nostalgic person. As long as he does not do heinous things, he will Chen Xianhe will basically not be sentenced to death." Xiao Qingyu's voice was flat.

Mu Yutang's bright little face became bitter in an instant, and she said weakly: "According to what you want, Chen Xianhe will be interrogated three times, and his charges will be reduced to an infinitely lighter one. life for a life?"

Xiao Qingyu pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Almost."

Mu Yutang's face was gloomy. No wonder Chen Xianhe was so confident when he was taken away. He knew that nothing would happen to him.

Those people from the Ministry of Punishment worked hard to collect evidence to reduce Mu Zhen's sentence. Although Mu Zhen was not killed by Chen Xianhe, and Chen Xianhe had also learned a lesson, it was far from what she expected: "The emperor also If he pampers the old officials too much, he won't be afraid that the old officials will be arrogant and rob him of his country?"

Xiao Qingyu's expression was indifferent: "Chen Xianhe made a big mistake once, the emperor will forgive him, and if he makes a second mistake, the emperor will ignore it."

Mu Yutang pursed her lips. Chen Xianhe was sinister and vicious, and she was extremely vigilant. She had seized the opportunity to count him once. He had suffered a big loss, so he would definitely be more careful. It would be even more difficult to plot against him again. .

"Get out, get out, this is no longer your home." A rude male voice came to his ears, Mu Yutang raised his eyebrows, it was the voice of the housekeeper of Duke Mu's mansion, what happened?
Opening the curtain and looking out, I saw Aunt Zhao and Mu Ziling being forcibly pushed out of Duke Mu's mansion. before.

"Take your things and go." The butler said coldly, looking at the two of them impatiently.

Aunt Zhao's eyes were red, and tears were like broken beads, one by one, she kept sliding down her cheeks: "I have been with the master for more than ten years, and there is no credit, but also hard work. The master's bones are not cold yet, so the young master drives us mother and daughter away." Leaving the house, he is too heartless."

Mu Yutang blinked, his biological father passed away, the first thing Mu Yuncheng did was not to take care of his funeral, but to drive his concubine and concubine out of Duke Mu's mansion, this son is really special!

"This is not driving away, but a separation. After the master passes away, the young master will become Duke Mu. You are the master's concubine, and it would be embarrassing to live in Duke Mu's mansion. The separation of the young master is for your own good." The male master of Duke Mu's mansion has changed from Mu Zhen to Mu Yuncheng, who is directly in charge of the fate of the housekeeper, so the housekeeper naturally speaks well of Mu Yuncheng in everything.

Aunt Zhao snorted coldly in disdain, and what she said was really high-sounding. Mu Yuncheng obviously saw that their mother and daughter were not pleasing to the eye, and was afraid that they would steal the family property, so he couldn't wait to drive them out: "Our mother and daughter are helpless. Duke's Mansion, how do you live?"

Aunt Zhao's miserable cry pierced into her ears, but it didn't arouse the housekeeper's sympathy, but it also made him feel disgusted, and said impatiently: "Didn't I just give you 1000 taels of silver? You take it It, buy a house, save some money, and it won't be a problem until Miss Fourth gets married."

Mu Ziling's complexion changed when she heard the words, and she clenched her little hands under the sleeves tightly. She is an ugly monster with no teeth, who else is willing to marry her?When the butler said that, he was clearly mocking her.

"1000 taels of silver is too little. You can't buy a house in a city where every inch of gold and land is available. Even if you can buy a courtyard with one entry and one exit in a very remote place, 1000 taels will cost nothing. You let us What are you going to eat? What are you going to drink?" Aunt Zhao looked at the bank note in her hand, and she burst into tears of grievance.

"I don't care about this anymore, I'm just following the orders of the young master!" The steward replied casually to her, and said coldly to the guard guarding the gate: "Both of you, watch the gate carefully, if there are any idlers waiting to enter the mansion , only you are asking."

"Yes!" The guards agreed proudly, their voices were loud, and the hilt of the sword reflected the cold light in the sun, making people daunting.

Mu Ziling's brows were tightly frowned, and a mockery flashed in her eyes. After the parents passed away, the children would be separated. If the elders did not specify the ownership of the property, then most of the property would belong to the descendants of the concubine, and the children of the concubine would only get a lot of money. If it was a little less, Mu Yuncheng paid them 1000 taels, knowing that it was so pitiful, she had no reason to make a fuss, because even if she made a fuss, no one would sympathize with her.

Now she is rejected by her half-brother, like a bereaved dog, unable to return home, it's really sad!
There was a bitter smile on the corner of her mouth, she turned around to wipe away her tears, and saw a carriage parked at the corner of the street. The noble and elegant rosewood was a status symbol, and there was only one in Qinglong Kingdom.

Mu Ziling's eyes lit up, and she hurried to the carriage, looking at Mu Yutang's bright face and the noble man behind her, she burst into tears uncontrollably: "Big sister..."

Mu Yutang had seen enough of the excitement, and planned to leave, but she was spotted by Mu Ziling, who was still standing in front of the car, blocking her way, frowning in her heart, and said lightly: "Miss Mu Si, I have something urgent to do. Leave, please make way..."

Mu Ziling's tears flowed even more when she heard this, she looked at her pitifully, and said in a choked voice: "Sister, I was kicked out of Duke Mu's mansion and I am homeless, can you take me in?"

"Miss Mu Si, I'm just the adopted daughter of Prince Yan. I'm like a guest in Prince Yan's mansion. It's outrageous to bring you to live there." After Tang Zhili entered Prince Yan's mansion, he would definitely not settle down. King Yan treated Mu Yutang very well, and she didn't want to lure wolves into the house and cause trouble for King Yan.

Mu Ziling looked at her serious face and shook her head hastily: "Sister, don't get me wrong, my mother and I are not visiting, we can be servants."

Mu Yutang sneered in her heart, aunt and concubine are used to being masters, how could they be willing to be ordered around by the current people, besides, Mu Ziling is her younger sister, if she really let Mu Ziling come into the house to be a maid, even if Mu Ziling Zi Ling really has no complaints, even the famous nobles will condemn her.

"I'm sorry, Miss Mu Si, there is no shortage of maidservants in Prince Yan's Mansion!"

Mu Ziling's pitiful face froze for a moment, a dark light flashed in her eyes, Mu Yutang actually refused to accept it, no matter what method she used, Mu Yutang would not be fooled, forget it, she didn't need to be scheming, Let's say it directly: "Sister, I use a big secret, how about you take me in instead?"

Mu Yutang curled her lips into a sneer, and finally couldn't help but reveal her real purpose. Mu Ziling entered Yanwang Mansion because she wanted to be like her. people?Ghosts believe it.
